As of February 1999, I've joined the Peace Corps in South Africa. I'm stationed in Bankuna from Feb-May 1999 for training, and then its off to parts unknown for my 2-year assignment. I will be stationed in either the Northern Province or Mpumalanga Province, both in the northeast part of South Africa. I will be doing both education and community development work, and in my spare time I will be yearning for letters. So, if you want to ease my suffering, send correspondence to:

I should be back in the States by spring or summer 2001! If you want to visit me before, write or email so I can clear a little space on my floor. (Disclaimer: who knows about email?) If I have Internet access, look for updates on my life in South Africa here! Otherwise, check out my friend Omar's great website for news/views on South Africa, or the excellent Daily Mail and Guardian's newssite. If you want just the basic facts or are planning a trip, check out Lonely Planet's site.

Peace and Happy Travelling to All!
